One of three men arrested for spying for Cambodia is reported to have escaped, Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva said on Thursday.
"I've received a report that a spy for Cambodia who was trying to gather information in Thailand has escaped," Mr Abhisit said.
"This proves that Thailand is not fabricating the spy case and we'll have to examine the evidence further," he said.
Police on Tuesday arrested a Thai, a Cambodian and a Vietnamese in Si Sa Ket's Kantharalak district, near the Thai-Cambodian border.
The suspects carried maps with military bases marked on them, but they denied they were spying.
The Cambodian government has accused Thailand of "deceitful fabrication" intending to mislead the public and malign Cambodia.
